devel/rubygem-polyglot 0.3.5 DragonFly

Polyglot provides a registry of file types that can be loaded by calling its improved version of 'require'. Each file extension that can be handled by a custom loader is registered by calling Polyglot.register('ext', <class>), and then you can simply require 'somefile', which will find and load 'somefile.ext' using your custom loader.

This supports the creation of DSLs having a syntax that is most appropriate to their purpose, instead of abusing the Ruby syntax.

Required files are attempted first using the normal Ruby loader, and if that fails, Polyglot conducts a search for a file having a supported extension.
